Important note for anyone thinking of heading to the St. Jacob's store is that
fact that it's in an outlet mall. It's sometimes easier to get a non-LEGO
significant other to make the journey (depending on where you live) if they know
they can shop for a while as you hit the Bricks and Blocks store. :)

I believe 100% of their inventory is LEGO. While not a company store, they move
a large volume of product through their store. In fact, the company is the
largest independent LEGO retailer in North America.
They also have some large scale models there (mostly Egyptian themed) which look
as though they must have originated from the LEGO company itself. The models
would be a much better attraction if they were cleaned or dusted now and then.
They seem to get dirtier looking every time I'm there. :(

I'm not as close... but close enough to make the trip when necessary. Wait,
when *isn't* it necessary to go the a store that sells nothing but LEGO? ;)
